Rietz’s job of putting muscles on
the trainees. “Lefty,” commonly
called the blindest man to ever
referee a ball game, after spend
ing his last seventeen months in
the Navy at Penn State has gone
out on points and 'left Saturday
to assume his old job as basket
ball coach at Loyola of Baltimore.
Thirty Eight Points
On the other hand among the
trainees, A 1 Tomek, Ed 'Bushka,
'Bob Rioux, Ken Holt, and Joe
Bondi now have thirty-eight
points or more too, but aren't in
such a hurry to leave. The way
the point system works if a trainee
makes no formal request, he is
discharged. If he does make a
request to :be retained on active
duty, he has to agree to stay as
long as NROTC remains an active
duty unit and accept a commiss
ion if and when "one is offered.
A 1 Tomek, a former machinist’s,
mate with the Seabees in Eng
land, left Saturday, but nothing
is definite for the other four. Ed
Bushka was an MM2/c on an AR
in Bizerte. Bob Rioux served as
an electrician's mate on a DE com-'
voying in the Mediterranean. Ken
Holt shipped on the carrier Lang
ley through the Marshalls, Caro
lines, Palau, and New Guinea be
fore being shipwrecked on the S.
S. Henry Bergh off San Francisco.
-Boxer Joe Bondi was a bandage
roller, oni New - Caledonia /before
coming l here. Besides all these,
Sam Paprocky, an aviation mech
with an ACON group in New
Georgia, will soon toe out on re
quest.

THE COLLEGIAN
Transportation Woes
Plague Equipment
Manager
Football coaches hold no monop
oly when it Comes to pre-game and
post-game headaches, Oscar Buch
enhorst, Penn State equipment
manager, states. Football ihe de
scribes as “my biggest headache.”
Oscar bears the brunt of the
headaches avhen he has to see that
all of the ten trunks weighing
from 200 to more than 700 pounds
each are filled to overflowing for
each trip. It is his jab to see that
they are packed, shipped, and re
turned safely to the point of or
igin.
He estimates the total weight of
football equipment for 33 players
on aiway-from-home games at ap
proximately a ton and a half.
A single player’s equipment is
estimated at '22 pounds, and this
poundage is augmented by extras
in pants, jerseys, headgears, and
other essentials. Oscar places the
number of different items required
for each trip at more than a hun
dred.
Football is (his number one head
ache because varsity candidates
have numbered 150 each of the
last two seasons. Track comes next,
with anywhere from 80 to 90 can
didates, followed closely by base
ball and lacrosse. Boxing and
wrestling are next in line, with 00
to 70 aspirants each year.
